Orbetron’s AT16 Feeder

Orbetron’s AT16, gravimetric screw feeder is specifically designed to feed free-flowing materials as well as poor-flowing powders at low rates. The removable feed hopper makes it ideal for applications that require quick material changes. To make a material change, just remove the existing hopper and replace it with a new clean hopper. The removable feed hopper can also be used as a storage container, eliminating cleaning and the possibility of product contamination.

The AT16 gravimetric screw feedercan be configured with or without material agitation. The AT16 feeder can be easily integrated with gravimetric or volumetric controls, as well as installed separately or in a production line with multiple feeding devices.The Orbetron’s AT16 also has high-precision load cells that provide real-time monitoring of material flow. This allows for instant adjustments, maintaining the accurate feed rate. With its accurate dosing capabilities, the AT16 gravimetric screw feederminimizes material waste, saving costs on raw materials and cleanup.

The consistency in material dosing results in products of the highest quality. Whether it’s in pharmaceuticals, food processing, or plastics manufacturing, the AT16 gravimetric screw feeder helps maintain product integrity.Orbetron’s AT16 gravimetric screw feeder represents a technological advancement in material dosing systems.
